Alberta at festivity meeting blokes in the middle (7)

I believe the answer is:

abdomen

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the middle' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'alberta at festivity meeting blokes' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'blokes' could be 'men' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'men' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for abdomen that I've seen before include "Region of the body between the thorax and pelvis" , "Central region" , "Central part of the body" , "A main part of the body" , "Ban demo (anag)" .)
